Les mammouths étaient chassés par l'homme pour leur chair et leurs os étaient utilisés pour la construction de huttes , pour support de grill, instruments du musique, protection de sépultures. L'os servait aussi de combustible, mais aussi comme enclume, pour les femmes comme bijoux, pour les hommes comme armes. Pour chasser, les hommes rabattaient un mammouth et le tuaient. Les défenses de mammouth sont transformées en œuvre d'art. Il y a plusieurs armes en ivoire: un killing-strick un boomerang qui ne revient pas, une arme de chasse.

hutte faite d' os de mammouths
Mammoths were hunted by man for their flesh and the bones were used for the construction, for the support of steakhouse, instruments of music, protection of graves. The bone also served as fuel, but also as anvil, for women as jewels, for men as weapons. To hunt, men drove a mammoth towards them and killed it. The defences of mammoths are transformed into works of art. There are many ivory weapons such as a killing-strick, a boomerang which does come back, a hunting weapon.
